I agree with Doug and Cindy...... just the tree, and less saturation on the color of it. I'm of the opinion that selective coloring has a tendency to be somewhat cliche and over-done, but when it's done right it's effect can be really beautiful. So for me, subtlety is key.... a light touch with maybe only one object (the main point of focus) should be colored and then it shouldn't jump out in your face.... And I do make the distinction between selective coloring and a hand-colored/tinted BW image where color is brought back into the entire piece, for me there's a difference. In anycase that's a fine shot!
I am, therefore I create.......
